This Is Pop Punk Promotions with an Interview with CANS.
Interview by: Branden Whitehead
Cans is a pop punk band that formed recently a month ago, you can check out their music here, http://canspunk.bandcamp.com/
TIPPP- How long has CANS been a band and how did you guys come together?
CANS- CANS is quite new therefore we only are an active band for 1 month now. We all knew each other before as we all live in the same town and shared the stage with different bands we played in, or we were all going out on a Friday night and got leathered. We all share the same passion for making music so we thought we start a band and that happened like 1 month ago.
TIPPP- We saw that you guys are from Australia, how is the local scene there and is it hard to make it as a band?
CANS- Haha, actually we are from Austria not Australia, people tend to make this mistake very often. The scene is pretty good, at least where we are from. There are a lot of local shows you can attend and the bands really try to promote other bands too so you really get this feeling of community you know.
TIPPP- How would you say your music is different and makes CANS unique aside from other bands?
CANS- To be honest, at this early stage that we are in I don’t think we really stand out from other bands as we still have to find our own sound you know? We have a lot of influences and try to make the best of a song by combining certain elements we’ve heard here and there. We’re just having fun playing and that’s what it’s all about I think.
TIPPP- You recently released a 2 song demo titled 420. How has the release for it been going so far?
CANS- Yeah we’ve recorded two songs at our friend Fred’s basement. “Teenwolves” is actually the first song we’ve ever written. Response has been awesome so far, we are still overwhelmed by all the positive feedback we're earning.
TIPPP- What has CANS been up to recently (tour,shows,recording,etc.)?
CANS- Nothing really as we are a band for only 1 month now. We’ve recorded our first demo 420 and that’s it haha.
TIPPP- What should we expect from CANS in the near future?
CANS- 420 was the first recording we did, maybe we’ll record a couple more songs and make some physical copies, but there’s no need to rush, as we want to take all the time we need to make these next songs more varied and ambitious as the previous ones.
There will also be a lot of shows as we really just wanna hit the road and play every gig we can.
TIPPP- What’s CANS favorite thing to do as a band beside playing music?
CANS- Go Skate and Smoke Weed haha.
TIPPP- What has been your favorite show you’ve guys played?
CANS- We haven’t played a show yet unfortunately so I can’t tell you. But our favourite show we’d like to play would be Support for Title Fight and The Story So Far in a sold out venue somewhere in New Zealand, man that would be sweet!
TIPPP-The worst show you guys have played?
CANS- Again I can only assume that the worst show we’re going to play will have something to do with a lot of alcohol and drugs before the show and a lot of puking during the show! Does this sound weird?
TIPPP- Anything else you would like to mention or say?
CANS- Check out our demo, download it, share it, go skate with it, smoke a bowl to it - just have fun with it!
Stay posi, 420.
